I can't really say that it's much of a difference over the 997 in appearance. I see the changes to the nose and tail but overall, it is very much 997 in it's appearance. The interior is completely revised, though. I'm going to have to wait to drive the first one to see if it's worth the trade in on my 997.

It's a nice evolution. It has evolved into a sleeker design. Lower, longer, sleeker. It is moving closer to an Aston or Ferrari in appearance.
911's were never "sleek" in appearance historically IMHO. They were stout muscular sports cars.
While someone above said the 991 instantly dates the 997, actually the way I see it, it instantly moves the 997 into the class of loved classic Porsches and Porsche designs.

With all of the recent magazines writing about the 991 testing in South Africa, Porsche went ahead and released a video themselves...

Thanks crazy.. wow. Guess the boot room etc. would have that effect.

It shouldn't be... I assume it's the way the photo was taken, probably taken standing on a chair positioned fairly close with a wide angle lens.

You going to tell me, they used the same led lights from the 997.2 generation......Mix feelings about this, to me there isnt much change at all, i feel the 993 to the 996 to the 997 was more of a change then from the 997 to the 991(my .02 cents).....

Then I saw this yesterday. I would've like something slightly more drastic, but this will suffice.
